GIULIO CAMPI (1502-72)
The Raising of Lazarus
c. 1547RCIN 991118
Giulio Campi designed and decorated the whole of the small church of Santa Margherita in Cremona, for its titular prior, the humanist scholar Marco Girolamo Vida. This is a final study for one of six arched frescoes in the side walls of the barrel-vaulted church. The scene is set against an imposing backdrop reminiscent of Campi’s own architectural works.
